The Waggon and Horses is an extremely busy establishment and is food led.  All our chefs work with fresh produce and produce the majority of our menu from scratch.  The Waggon is recognised as a place where food and service is paramount and the quality and presentation is of an extremely high standard.

They will also be reliable, hardworking and organised. If you are interested in this position then please call 01226 763259 and ask to speak to Tony, Sam or Mark.

Well what a Day we had yesterday!  We had a stall at Penistone Show for The Waggon and Horses and what a fantastic Day was had by all!! It was lovely to see many of our existing customers who popped by to say hello and have a little drink and was also a pleasure to talk to people who have yet to visit us here at The Waggon. Many bookings were taken for our Christmas Events which can be viewed on our website and also many bookings for meals in The Waggon itself.  If you are planning on attending our Christmas events or simply planning on having your Christmas celebrations at the Waggon then I do urge you to book ASAP as we are getting bookings coming thick and fast now and I wouldn’t want you to miss out!! Indeed Christmas Day is already sold out.

Also at The Penistone Show we were selling The Heads Together Charity calendar  featuring 12 local lads who barred (nearly) all to raise money for this worth while cause set up by Claire Throssell in memory of her two boys; Jack and Paul.  The commeraderie between Claire, these men and their families is truly fantastic and I am sure that Jack and Paul will have been looking down and smiling at what an amazing woman their mum is and how the community has come together in their name.  It was a mixture of emotions for everyone but there was fun and humour aswell.  The calendar is available from the website and The Waggon and Horses along with other local businesses.
